title: High throughput cell sorting device using dielectrophoresis and fluid-induced shear force.
abstract: Cell sorting is important technology in many areas such as medical diagnosis in hospitals and cell engineering. Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is one of the promising approaches for cell separation because it does not require any fluorescent dye or antibody. In our previous study, we developed DEP cells sorting device, however the amount of throughput was not sufficient. In this study, we developed high throughput cell sorting device using dielectrophoretic and fluid-induced shear force. As the pilot study, mixed solution containing bovine chondrocytes and polystyrene beads were precisely separated using our novel DEP cell sorting device.
